shannon bream and katie pavitt for the bell. brett kavanaugh who committed some kind of sexual assault in high school has set aside into something different, something ugly, something threatening to all of us. we've learned remarkably little from brett kavanaugh from christian ford in the past week, despite lots of words on their behalf. the facts of the case are still sparse and murky. but we've learned a disturbing amount of the left and what it's willing to do in order to maintain control of this country. watch a clip from today in which new york senator kristen gillibrand explained why she knows brett kavanaugh is guilty. watch. >> i believe her because she's telling the truth. she is asking the fbi to investigate her claims. she is asking for that kind of review, that investigative work, that accountability, because she's telling the truth. somebody lying does not ask the fbi to investigate their claims.

who is not asking the fbi to investigate these claims? the white house. dr. kavanaugh -- excuse me, judge kavanaugh has not asked, have the recipe i review these claims. is that the reaction of an innocent person? it is not. >> tucker: tried to ignore the yelling and the theatrics and the pure demagoguery for a moment and focus on kirsten gillibrand's reasoning, to the extent there is any. "i believe her because she's telling the truth. ." in logic class, the collet circular reasoning, which is not reasoning at all. it simply demanding you believe something because someone else is asserting it. children talk this way. you think a u.s. senator would be embarrassed. it's the second part of her statement you should pay attention to because it's scary. kavanaugh hasn't called yet for another fbi investigation to himself, therefore senator gillibrand says he did

it. is that the reaction of a innocent person, she thunders? it's not. not since the mccarthy era almost 70 years ago have lawmakers talk like this in the country, unless you call an fbi investigation of yourself you are guilty of a crime. joe mccarthy himself never said anything like that who , too reckless for him. a leading candidate for presidential nomination drops this and the media hardly notice. there is a new standard in washington. kristen gillibrand is a friend of harvey weinstein. a picture of two of them together. weinstein has been accused of rape. did she know about his assaults? is she in a sensory to the equipment we asked these questions. why has the fbi not demand an fbi investigation to herself. is that the reaction of a innocent question? look at the fbi, interview her under oath, surprise her at her home at dawn with a search warrant.

while they are at it, they should take a close look at her relation ship with bill clinton and other accused rapists. if she hesitates? press charges. this is lunatic. liberals understand that it is. democrats don't want brett kavanaugh in court because they disagree with him and that's understandable, by the way. they are angry that the republican senate refused to vote on mayor garland, that's understandable too. what's now is dangerous in a way that is dangerous, and the matter who you voted for in 2016. extremism has exploded on the left and nobody is trying to contain it. here is one particularly jarring example of that. this is congressman john garamendi of california. we know him well. one of the few house democrats willing to come on the show. i don't agree with garamendi but i find him a decent person always. here's what he said about the

kavanaugh accusations. >> women should be outraged what these white men senators are doing to this woman. the senators, the male senators, who control that committee, are playing the games as old as -- women are accused, women are at fault. >> tucker: wait a second. what is the race of specific senators have to do with any of this? should we be angry at them because of their skin color? should we distrust them more? are they inherently less fair or less decent because of the way they look? garamendi is implying exactly that. how is that different or don't like anything george wallace has said? it's not, except this filth is everywhere so you hardly notice it. the last thing this country needs right now is a racial division. democrats are pushing it anyway. they are pushing allegations that have literally nothing to do with race. split the country into tiny warring groups is useful for them.

it helps them contain their power, so they are happy to do it. men against women, black against white, divide and conquer. whatever it takes. in the end, it's unlikely that we'll ever know conclusively what happened between brett kavanaugh and christine ford 36 years ago, if anything at all. but it's crystal clear what's happening right now: it's a power grab. it's hurting the country, destroying our centuries old traditions of justice and empowering and demagogues. we ought to shut it down right now. and yet, this is late breaking news, before air breaking time, this may go on and on. republicans on the health and they are considering delaying the hearing scheduled for monday at this point. brett kavanaugh will be testifying by himself. to some future date. because of the rules of the senate, that will push back the vote on kavanaugh by at least a week, if not more. which is, of course, the whole point. to drag the country through this pointless charade, this circus

which divides us and hurts us and the grades are standard for justice simply for political ends. that's where we are. professor, i'm glad you're here. as a law professor, i want to ask you about what senator gillibrand said today. she's a lawyer as well, i believe. she said the new standard is unless you call for an fbi investigation into yourself, you are by definition guilty. is that a legal standard that you recognize? >> what i like to think about is if i were, as brett kavanaugh says, an innocent man, and i were falsely accused of something this serious, what would i want to? and i teach civil procedure and i think about criminal procedure. i think through that question. what i want is a process that is regarded as so fair, even by my ideological adversaries, that i would be able to the left democrats in my life be able to point to the process say we have this out and everyone can agree the way we did it was fair and i

was cleared. that's what i would want. i think i would both agree that the first thing you would want in that >> tucker: he hasn't received at that, none of us have. barring that, and i'm not attacking her, but i think it should be distressed that she she's not explaining her software that's not what shall a brand said. she said if you do not ask for and in a vacation in yourself, that's an indication you're guilty. that's the same as as a third d standard. and it's hard to believe in elected senator would say that. you aren't surprised about that? >> two things. number one, if i were an innocent man, i would actually welcome the fbi investigating. i might not call for it but i would say, sure, investigate. you would see that i'm an innocent man for the second thing, i'm listening to you talk to this. you said, and you pointed out

quite correctly, many of the senior members of the democratic party are incredibly associated with important predators like harvey weinstein and to your point i would say it's a good idea to does investigate that. which i do agree with. >> tucker: no -- it's not a partisan issue. the point i'm making is the guilt by investigation is a low and immoral tactic and we use to revile people who made that like senator joe mccarthy. it's commonplace so we don't notice it. if you have dinner with somebody who has unsavory views or unpopular views, you could be fired. we've seen people fired for that very thing. guilt by association is not the same as guilt. so to say that because kirsten gillibrand was friends with harvey weinstein and an she is somehow accessory to his predation is totally wrong. i would never make that claim. i was merely saying -- >> that's not what you're suggesting. >> tucker: what i'm suggesting is that innocent people have a

moral obligation to call it upon themselves with an fbi investigation. it's insane! >> i agree with that. but if i were an innocent man, i wouldn't think of it as my obligation but rather my privilege. if i were brett kavanaugh, and i'm an innocent man, i would insist on pointing every camera at my face and denying these allegations. i want everyone to see it. wouldn't you? >> tucker: i think he's been the subject of six fbi investigations into his background checks. they'll make by federal agents and i believe he's testifying md he'll say i don't know what sheg about. she, by contrast, the reason we are having this conversation, leveled the charge of felonious behavior against a public official and refuse to explain yourself. where is the onus on her quite make she's dragged the whole country and a short-circuited process and not bothered to expanders on? i know you aren't supposed to blame the victim, but she's not

in charge of the whole country. why isn't she being asked of the story? >> look, the government is entitled to every person's evidence. it would be useful if she testified. again, keep with the frame a little bit. if i were brett kavanaugh and i were an innocent man i would say, look, i don't want to testify on monday, take a week, take a month. when this is done, and i'm confirmed, i will not live myself under a crowd dell mcleod is because the reason we rush through it is -- the one i understand. if if you face opponents that yu publicly were declared you were guilty on the basis of evidence, the fact you didn't request an fbi investigation into yourself, you would acknowledge you are dealing with unreasonable people who are dealing with just if you are merely trying to destroy your life or political ends. or am i being crazy here? >> am i -- what i would say is, fine,

do you want to delay the hearing for a month? fine. look into it. >> tucker: if you accused me anonymously -- >> "i'm an innocent man." >> tucker: when you have people saying what kristen gillibrand said today or what congressman -- you deal with people who don't care about justice. i know -- pick a prosecutors often don't. >> tucker: i agree. >> position yourself as these people aren't reasonable. if i give them everything they want -- >> tucker: he's doing that monday! professor, thank you very much. >> thank you very much for having me. >> tucker: our long-term investigation into google and its behavior and practices, we have internal documents show google employees trying to use the company's search engine to

>> tucker: we have a development in our ongoing exclusive investigation into the behavior of google. new emails, obtained by the show, google is the most powerful company in the history of the world. virtually all human information flows through it software. for that reason, google shapes how the world understands reality. at the heart of google's business is its search engine which is a virtual monopoly on search in this country and others. google search succeeds because it's blindingly efficient but also because it's perceived as honest. we search a term on google, the most popular results come to the top. the process is straightforward and democratic. that's why the world trust

google. but what if google is lying to you? what if the results you got were secretly waited to get you to vote a certain way, to believe ? that would affect a lot of people and a lot of votes. it would be impossible to have a real democracy under circumstances like that. a small number of incredibly rich people would be in charge of everything, including your perceptions. that is a major concern for all of us because google is a very political company who recently showed your email evidence of a google effort to collude with a left-wing group in support of hillary clinton the pots are as presidential campaign. we have internal documents that google employees are corrupting the search engine to push propaganda on hundreds of millions of own funds except -- google employees began plotting ways to under manning the president executive order. a google product marketing manager named mckenzie thomas

send an email to a group of fellow employees. "there is a large brainstorm going through the marketing orb," writing about how to respond to trump's order. along thomas' ideas is to counter algorithmic results as far as iran, latino, and so forth, google wanted to make them more positive for political reasons. thomas promote the links for making donations to organizations fighting the travel ban. this, of course, would be completely dishonest and unethical behavior. but thomas' colleagues google seemed to approve it strongly. rami bana responded, "absolutely income of kenzie. we'll put you a list of orbis with merrill and hl team." stacie chan added groups she had thought they should promote including the aclu, the immigrants defense project, the

national immigration law center. all of those groups at the time agitating against the president's immigration ban. even at least one person on the team seem to realize how dangerous and out of the ordinary this conversation was. a google employee called clement wolf quoted he was very much in favor of google stepping up, but was wondering how partisan we want to be on this. to the extent of my knowledge, we'd be breaching president if we only give highlights access to organizations who support a certain view. we contacted google about these remarkable emails and reply to wes is here in full. "these emails were a brainstorm of ideas, and none ever implemented. google has never modified search results to promote a political ideology, not in the current campaign season, not during the 2016 election, not in the aftermath of president trump's order on immigration. our processes improperly policies would not have allowed

us to nor did google say anything about these employees on this email chain. presume believe they still work at google, which is remarkable. if you ran a bank and you caught your child is brains telling how to rob the vault, will they still work for you? google fired a engineer named james damar, flew back to fire him, wipe like that because he was caught making conservative ideas in a private memo. here the conversation leak secretly, but it's fine with google. it shouldn't be fine with the u.s. congress who is testified -- it would be nice if one elected representative asked about this, because it's much scarier anything that russia ever attempted. peter schweitzer of "clinton

cash," he joins us tonight. are you surprised by this? >> not really. further confirmation that google has been cooking the books as it relates to search. you're absolutely right. this would be like a company having a brainstorming session on how we are going to fiddle with the books and accounting. you are going a step back and say, no, we were just having a brainstorming session. it speaks to the culture of the company. they are prepared to put their thumb on the scale and shift the debate in favor of the direction they want to go. >> this is so corrupt. i was stunned by it. i was worried these emails were not authentic because -- search is the core of google's business. many different things, but it's a search engine. it was built on the back of one. the promise has been they are not lying to you. but they are. >> that's right. this is the third strike as far as i'm concerned. the third strike is the commercial search, when travel

websites and people like yelp were complaining that they were tilting the algorithm against them to others. google said, absolutely not. we would never do that. the federal trade commission, the e.u., has looked at this and said google was fiddling with the algorithm. that second strike was the work died by robert epstein that shows clearly in 2016 that search was tilted to favor hillary clinton. this is strike three, shows the culture of the company is such that they are very happy having a free and open conversation about manipulating the algorithm on a highly political -- >> tucker: people go to jail for violating campaign finance laws because they put an extra ad on a cable channel no one watches. this is the most powerful company in the world. how could we have a democracy in the country were google can get whoever it wants elected by lying through us through the search function? >> it's a great example, tucker, of regulations and campaign finance laws not keeping up where we are in technology.

when we pass laws about in-kind contribution from campaigns from companies that something like this would happen. this is the ultimate, ultimate, campaign contribution. this is not like exxon giving gasoline to a political campaign. this is a company secretly tipping the scales and favors of candidates or causes or believes they have. it's done in secret. we don't know how extensive is happening. 80%-90% of search is done by google. they have complete dominance. >> tucker: congress does nothing. i can think of at least one republican senator who's been bothered bought off by google. we are not going to stop this investigation into google or any of the other tech companies that seem to determine the direction of this country. well, republican senate candidates being denounced as a would be theocrat for saying man have a duty to lead. he joins us after the break.

>> tucker: one of the pivotal facts of modern american life, the country and its cities are pretty safe. they weren't always safe. but for about the last 20 years, the murder rate has gone down. now, sadly, it is rising again. it is not surprising. for years, the left have been denouncing the cops as bigots, all of them. beto o'rourke in texas called police "the new jim crow" and claim they shoot people just because of his color of their skin. be honest, would you want to be a cop right now? who would want to be a cloth? why would you risk the -- some moron because you're a bigot because of the uniform you wear? it's not worth it for a lot of people. for that, among other seasons,

american cities are becoming left safe much less safe in some season. jeff sessions went to chicago, one of the cities hardest hit by the train. he laid out clearly why americans are getting killed in big cities. >> i'm a professor who studied chicago calling it the aclu effect. policing went down? crime went up. a clear lesson here. if you want more shootings, more death, listen to the aclu, antifa, black lives matter, groups who did not know the reality of policing. >> tucker: the funny thing is most of these changes have taking place under the pretext of civil liberties. the person pushing them do not care about civil liberties. certainly not your civil liberties, if you haven't noticed. if you do not call an fbi investigation on yourself, you must be guilty. if you're older than 35, you may remember and when america's great cities depopulated,

destroyed by a blight. true here in washington, especially in new york city. they recovered, real estate boom the, lots of people became happy and didn't die because they bece safer. what happens when they get dangerous again? as they are? the left doesn't seem to care at all. michigan republican senate candidate john james is coming under fire for expressing an idea that leadership can be a masculine responsibility. watch this. >> we have a charge to lead. we are failing in that because we are afraid to hurt someone's feelings. the fact of the matter is that women want men to be tested. and boys need to be tested. spiel one so women like strong man. don't >> tucker: so women like strong men. there are reams of social science on this question and most americans think it signed sensible. for uttering these words, one writer at the "detroit metro

times" is accusing james of seeking a "handmaiden's tale" style theocracy. thank you for coming on. when we get to what your critics are saying about you, what were you saying when you uttered those words? >> absolutely. i was raised in a church and i know based upon my priorities, which is god and country, in that order, we talk a lot about rights in this country, but not enough about response abilities. i believe we all have to step up. we are all created equal. but i truly believe because how i was raised that men have an obligation to step up and not abandon their family responsibilities, to step up and be mentors and role models in their community. when i was talking to a faith-based organization talking to men, talking about them stepping up, holding them accountable to be mentors. the reason is right now the left has very little way to attack me other than take things out of context or just flat out lie. i'm not going to fit in

anybody's blue box or anybody's red box. i'm a conservative who believes very strongly in faith and family, god and country, service before its self. that's why i serve my country in iraq, that's why i came to build my committee here in detroit, that's why i'm going to go to washington and clean and serve my safe. states. >> tucker: you think men should take care of the families they create and for that they are sums of ayatollah. >> if i can be frank, i know i can be in the show, the overwhelming number of african-american females having children are doing so and managing the role and responsibility as a single parent. i believe that men need to step up. that's what i was talking about. the man attacking me for that proves that their business model is dependent on keeping black folks in debt. keeping them in a situation where they can make sure that they depend on the left for

their vote. i'm not talking about left or right. i'm not talking about black or white. i'm talking about the right thing. a message of economic opportunity that's focused on early childhood development, but you have people who talk a good game and talk about fixing the school system here, talk about getting people out of their blight and their social economic downtrodden state, but then you have the aclu who continues to allow these things to get in the way. i'm about creating freedom and opportunity for everyone, particularly in my community here in detroit. >> tucker: good for you. families are a threat to the american republican vote. that's the truth. thank you very much for coming on tonight. >> thanks for having me. >> tucker: megyn kelly had some brave and insightful words about the chaos surrounding brett kavanaugh. we'll show them to you in just a minute. mark steyn here to react to all of that. first, the questions have been chosen. the crown is in place. that champagne is cooling. it's time for the ultimate final

do this. they say -- she had actually hasn't made the complaint. she's the only person who hasn't made a statement under oath. even these letters that kavanaugh's friend mark charge sent to the judiciary committee, that's made under the penalty of perjury. if you have a complaint, you have to walk into a police station and make a complaint and the police interview you. the police won't investigate somebody if you are not even prepared to come into the police station and tell your story. that's how it should be. kirsten gillibrand, you say she's a lawyer. have these legislators are lawyers and half of them all have lawyers on their vast bloated entourages, want us to live in a world where anyone can call down and the fbi investigation on anybody else. if that's the way we are going to live, i'm pretty certain it

"you are attacking the victim!" does this work for any other species of crime? and i and honestly accuse you for embezzlement and armed robbery and the elaborate on the accusation while your reputation is destroyed? >> no. a criminal accusation is a serious thing. a criminal accusation 36 years on is an even more serious thing. if you took it seriously, you wouldn't, for example, just send the letter to one political party.

you would've sent it to both dianne feinstein and to chuck grassley. but this -- this is actually going -- the presumption of innocence is at the bed rock of our judicial system. so if you are just prepared to trash someone, and we have people in the democrat party, cory booker boasted he -- we shouldn't be having one federals for one party and for the other side you can crash them, demean them, degrade them, destroy their reputation. if you do not want in that if you do not want an investigation. >> tucker: rich and painter of next. he abandoned the republican party. now the party is turning against him. you won't believe why. next.

>> tucker: we've had a rich painter on talking about dumpster fires, but that's not what he is on tonight. now he says he's being threatened by his new party for asking questions about keith ellison. he's the dnc deputy chair charges of abuse by an ex-girlfriend. richard painter joins us tonight. lay out for us this story. you've asked questions about ellison. what was the response he got from your party? >> first, i think they are trying to run the clock to the election instead of having an investigation. it's been weeks. i also complained back in may about the dfl's failure to investigate harassment of a gay man in the eighth congressional district. he wrote a deep down my email writing expletive harassment that was swept under the rug. i finally wrote the dfl chair and went public with that.
